The In-Between Place: Where Jesus Changes Your Story


Listen Later

If there’s ever been a year to turn our understanding of work, of faith, and in many ways, of life in general upside down, it’s been this past one. Many are out of employment, furloughed, or working hours on end at home. For some of us, we’ve jumped more fully into the arms of the Lord, but for some, we’re doubting his goodness more than ever.

As women, as a nation, and as a world, we have found ourselves in an uncomfortable, prolonged IN-BETWEEN PLACE. 

So, what better She’s in the City guest this week than two-time author, Bible teachers, speaker, and entrepreneur/businesswoman, Kat Armstrong, whose latest book, released January 2021, explores just that. It’s entitled The In-Between Place: Where Jesus Changes Your Story. She brings just the prayer and the perspective and the encouragement we need as continue headlong into this next year. 

In the book Kat dives right into the in-between places we all face – places of doubt, pain, uncertainty, waiting, shame, you name it! She walks us through the story of a woman in scripture who felt a lot like we do in our own tough seasons – depleted and stuck. And she reminds us in powerful, biblically rooted ways that we are not doomed to relive the same cycles of disappointment and worry, because God is a powerful and creative God. And more times than not, right in the middle of our in-between places is where Jesus shows up in radical ways. Sometimes to change our circumstances, but always to change us if we’re willing to let him.

We talk about why waiting, though we don’t love doing, it is such a crucial part of establishing our faith and that, when surrendering our uncertain seasons to the Lord, we can:

1. Make peace with our past

2. Find hope in our present

3. Step confidently into our future 

Whether you’re in an in-between moment in your life right now or not, this episode is a much-needed encouragement as we all continue to face uncertainties of the pandemic. Thank you, Kat, for your powerful and timely message!
